How does the BRZ factor into that understanding of the NSX? Well it does have some never before seen elements (DI + boxer), but I think dsp4's correct in that this car is special in a way similar to how the NSX was special.

i really dont think that putting di on a boxer motor is "special." its not like there were any hurdles that needed to be overcome or anything that needed to be pioneered. if you count that as "special," you might as well count the rx8s doors "special" or the elises chassis "special." the only thing that really makes this car special is that it is a mediocore sports car in a time where there arent many sports cars.
the mustang gt broke peoples understandings of what an american muscle car can do and how much it costs to do it. why isnt that special? maybe the brz is the most special car since last years cars
